Tropical tuna exploitation in the Indian Ocean Targetedtunaspecies Bigeye (BET) Yellowfin (YFT) Skipjack (SKJ) Industrial fisheries start in 1983, rapid increase Catch tons/year 1983 2009 SKJ 70 000 400 000 YFT 60 000 300 000 BET 40 000 120 000 From IOTC – Report 2009
Skipjack tuna fishery: spatial distribution Main fishing gears: purse seine, bait boat, gillnet and long line From IOTC – Report 2009
Skipjack fishery: available data • Fishing gears • Purse seiners (French, Spanish and other) • Maldivian Baitboat • Data • Monthly catch 1x1 degree grid • Monthly size frequency 5x5 degree grid • Monthly fishing effort 1x1 degree grid From IOTC – Report 2009
APECOSM-E • Dynamic, deterministic spatially explicit and size structured model • Single species of top predator (i.e. skipjack tuna) • Devoted to parameter estimation • State variable Tuna biomass f(x,y,z,t,V) • Partial differential equation, discretized and solved numerically • 48 parameters: 19 related to fisheries, 8 energetic (DEB), 21 ecological parameters
Discretisation • 1º x 1º horizontal grid of the Indian Ocean (4230 cellules) • 20 vertical layers, 10 m interval in the first 150m and max depth of 500m • 83 size classes, from 1mm to 1m • 1 day time step
Fishing mortality • 4 fleets : French, Spanish and other (Seychelles, Ile Maurice, NEI) purse seiners and Maldivian Bait boat • Monthly value of spatial effort ek is applied on simulated biomass • Fishing power pk multiplies by an exponential function representing the increase in fishing efficiency due to technological development • Fish size and fishing depth selectivity functions

Data assimilation • 3 Steps • Identifiability of the model parameters (Hessian Matrix) • Parameter estimation • Sensitivity analysis of non-estimated parameters • Cost function combines • –log likelihood of catches JCAPT(K) • –log likelihood of size frequencies JFDT(K) • –log likelihood of parameters JPAR(K) • Minimization algorithm requires the derivation of the code automatic differentiation tool (TAPENADE-Inria) • Derives the exact gradient of the cost function with respect to model parameters
Data assimilation: convergence Data assimilation over 10 year period: 84-93 Optimization of fishery related parameters: fishing power, size and depth selectivity, … Iterations

Sensitivity analysis Based on the evaluation of the gradient of the cost function The gradient represents the variation of the cost function for a change in parameters Local sensitivity, changes in time 3 x 6 year periods 1984-1989 1990-1995 1996-2001 Ecological parameters DEB Param.
